~* The Bathroom Reveal *~

I've finally gotten around to where I am satisfied (for the time being) with my bathroom decorating. To the shelf I added an apothocary jar filled with decorative Gawri fruit (the jar is a recent thrift store find - as I told Lynda, I am obsessed with these jars!). I have no idea what Gawri fruit is, but I liked the looks of them. The rose picture was a thrift store find (I had changed the finish on the picture frame) and to the decorative glass bottle (another thrift store find) I added some pipberries.

The cupboard in it's new home!

Let's take a look inside!
Here's a pipberry candle ring that I am using as a wreath. I attached a doily to the back of it. I used an ornament hook stuck through the back of the doily to hang the pocket watch from it. Heidi was my inspiration for using the doilies...thank you, Heidi!

This is a picture of me as a little girl...I think I'm around four years old. This is one of my favorite pictures. I have a yellow polka dotted dress on.

This jar belonged to our dear "Granny". I used a rub on transfer to add the "K".

Here are a few old bottles that belonged to my dear Dad. Beside them is a birdhouse that was a thrift store find.

Thanks for taking a look!


As always, thank you so much for stopping by...I do appreciate each and every one of you! It's so nice to be able to share my home and "treasures" with you!

  1. A great job Kim! I am so happy to have inspired you too. I love using my grandmother's doilies as it brings her to my home in spirit. I also think any doily adds a bit of softness to a vingette. I love the old bottles and especially love them beside the birdhouse. It is a super mix of items!

    Isn't it great to walk into your bathroom when the things in there make you smile?

  2. Your bathroom is gorgeous, Kim! And it's a bathroom! Which means I'm right in my assumption. If you can make a yucky place like a bathroom look that beautiful...your home must be stunning.

    Love,

  5. Don't you just love old bottles?? I always wonder what they had in them and if people were better off from what was inside!

    I love your decorating. I know what you mean about "temporary satisfaction" myself, I feel like I am in a total state of constant change!

  7. I love the look! It's very restful, and I really like the way you painted the cabinet. I've been looking for an affordable one for my tiny master bathroom. It needs to be about that size for some much needed extra storage. You're very talented.

  11. The bathroom looks lovely, Kim. I so love all of the meaningful items you've put into the cupboard. I, too, love little bottles...I have no idea why. And birdhouses, one never has enough birdhouses...inside, outside...put them anywhere and everywhere. So decorative! Thanks for the bathroom reveal...inspiring!!

  12. Kim, these are all wonderful treasures! I feel as though my house is my home when I have family momentos spread throughout my home. Sometimes they are just things that I bought with family members there with me. Thanks for sharing! :)

  14. My parents have a number of these beautiful old bottles too! We used to collect them as kids from under the barn (over 200 year old house). Under the barn was where they had put their trash... Ater so many years though the trash had turned into treasure and really fun for kids to discover!

  15. What a perfect nook for your lovely cupboard, and another place for you to put your collection of treasures. Isn't it nice to stand back and admire, and know that to get this effect really doesn't have to cost the earth. x

  18. Very lovely! I'm sure your husband is very proud of you. Your K on your gram's jar is such a nice touch. I have my grandmother's statue of Mother Mary she gave me. She lived with us until she died at 85 years old. Such a wonderful,caring woman-my second mother. Blesings, Rose
